My stay at Kuwera Hotel had some highs and lows. The views were stunning from the balcony, and the room was spacious, providing a comfortable atmosphere. However, I encountered a few issues such as the cleanliness and maintenance of the facilities which were below expectations. Overall, it has potential, but some improvements are definitely needed.

The room I stayed in was spacious and well-equipped, featuring a nice shower and a terrace with a table and chairs. I appreciated the complimentary toiletries and hairdryer provided. However, the cleanliness was not up to par, which detracted from my overall experience.

Service

I found the service to be lacking. Though they welcomed me warmly, room service was almost nonexistent, and I had trouble finding assistance when needed. The food options were limited, and I felt that the dining experience could have been much better.

Location

The location is lovely, nestled on a hill which provided stunning views of Kandy. It's a bit of a trek to get down to the lake, but tuk tuks are readily available and reasonably priced for the trip back. It felt quiet and peaceful away from the hustle of the city.

Breakfast was provided, and while it included the basics, it felt unsatisfactory given the surrounding dining options. The hotel doesn't serve evening meals, which was a drawback for me, but thankfully there are restaurants nearby.

The facilities, including the swimming pool, were in need of better maintenance. I noticed the pool was dirty, and the hot water was inconsistent during my stay. I think with some improvements, it could be a nice spot to relax.

I had a great time at this boutique hotel up on the hill. The room was spacious and had a lovely balcony with a stunning view of Kandy. However, the swimming pool was a bit uninviting, so I didn't use it. Breakfast was solid, but I did miss having dinner options on-site.

The hotel is set on a hill, which provides amazing views, but it takes a bit of effort to walk down to the lake and town. A tuk tuk ride back was easy and inexpensive.

Breakfast was a buffet style, and since it was a low occupancy, they served it to me directly. It was more than enough to fill me up, but I would have liked more dinner options at the hotel.
